Ruins |
| Don’t try to call |
| There are some bridges that burn |
| Beyond recognition |
| Beyond repair |
| Don’t say you’ve changed |
| There are some forces that turn |
| Beyond recollection, beyond my stare |
| When I feel the cold in the dark |
| I know you’re there |
| Long ago |
| I was a woman in pain |
| A woman in need |
| I ran to you |
| Long ago |
| I did not understand |
| You were making me bleed |
| I ran to you |
| When I feel the cold in the dark |
| I know what you do |
| I will crawl through my past |
| Over stones, blood and glass |
| In the ruins |
| Reaching under the fence |
| As I try to make sense |
| In the ruins |
| I know your heart |
| Has held its own fear |
| It’s perfectly clear |
| What they did to you |
| But in my heart |
| It’s the screaming I hear |
| I won’t let them come near |
| Since my love knew you |
| When I feel the cold in the dark |
| I remember you |
| I will crawl through my past |
| Over stones, blood and glass |
| In the ruins |
| Reaching under the fence |
| As I try to make sense |
| In the ruins |
| Night after night |
| I am carving it out |
| I will carry it down |
| To the waterside |
| Night after night |
| I am hearing the sound |
| Of wings that come beating |
| I will not hide |
| When I feel the cold in the dark |
| I will know why |
| But I will crawl through my past |
| Over stones, blood and glass |
| In the ruins |
| Reaching under the fence |
| As I try to make sense |
| In the ruins |
| But if I am to heal |
| I must first learn to feel |
| In the ruins |
| I will crawl |
| I will crawl |
| I will crawl |
| Oh, oh, oh, oh… |
